But instead of tucking and running, Rodgers tried forcing a pass to Davante Adams, with the ball hitting the turf....

With four games remaining, Ange Postecoglou’s side are six points clear of second-placed Rangers and boast a far superior goal difference. Rangers won the league title last season under Steven Gerrard but have failed to hit the same heights this campaign, opening the door for the Hoops to reclaim top spot. Could Celtic win the Scottish Premiership against Rangers? While the short answer is no, the longer answer is pretty much....

Most of those comments were jokes, but there was one sobering tweet within the bunch, as the Orange County Register's Dan Woike pointed out the possibility of sleeved jerseys being used in the upcoming All-Star Game. It seems like a natural progression when one considers the NBA's rollout of the sleeved jerseys, which has been a gradual one.

Beijing’s attempts to shift these core paradigms are playing out on three fronts: at the United Nations; in its promotion of surveillance technologies abroad; and through an escalating information component on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, according to Washington national security analyst Lindsay Gorman.
